I see this too, on both mavericks and ordinary mac build of R.app
Its because R 3.1.0 has made ".find.package" a defunct function
We'll need to wait for the R.app developers to change the code behind the 
package manager to use "find.package" instead of ".find.package"
Hopefully it'll be a simple fix
